2016, The Year of Bitcoin?

[MaritiJames3]

Yea, 2016 could be the year of bitcoin. And that doesn't mean that bitcoin will suddenly become one on the world's biggest currencies, but it will surely be on sight because of controversial rhetorics about it that comes from the governments of different countries

Indeed, bitcoin will be bigger and better this year, its already getting bigger by day. I think we just have to wait till the future say what will happen, it will be a good year.

Yeah, but lets hope that this year would be really a year of bitcoin, as every year we keep on hoping that the price will reach the moon, but it never happened, the value should go higher this year or else people would stop believing in bitcoins.

I also wish that this year comes to be the year of bitcoin, where bitcoin will spring out and spread to each corner of the world, If the bitcoin got fame then its price will be so high and thus our wealth stored as bitcoin will increase and we will be more wealthy.
I wish that in 2016 the bitcoin reach to $1000 at least.

Yeah that is the price we all are hoping and expecting in the year 2016, and  if doesn't reach there then many of us would be really disappointed as we have waited very long to enjoy the success  of bitcoins.

So many discussions like this at the moment. Every year the same is said.

Yeah, it is normal then.. and so many same threads like this, but the answer is just the same..but its okay, more answer here are speculations and opinions..

Exactly, not sure what would be the value of bitcoin by the end of year 2016 but hoping and expecting that this year surely would be the best for bitcoins, as are listening to this every year, and the scenario remains the same.

2016 has potential to be a great year for bitcoin and for the price to rise massively and increased adoption, Many newspapers and media are covering bitcoin now and intermediate payment providers offering online payments which is a good step in adoption way IMO.

Well to be honest, I think the mainstream adoption might start happening because of the chance that Bernie might win the presidential nomination. He is a big advocate of taking down the Fed and corrupt monetary system policies, and he might actually be willing to throw away the whole Fed monetary system... That is, however, if the Fed doesn't assassinate him while they can before he does, just like what they did with JFK for threatening to go back on the gold standard.

Bitcoin will shine in the year 2016 only if it is promoted on high level and that with positively too, as bitcoin needs a promotion to be more popular in every corner of the world, if its popularity is high, then this year can be profitable for bitcoins.

[trinaldao]

2016 hope :
- steam accept bitcoin (now in rumor and soon )
- amazon accept bitcoin (imposible but i hope it)
- more merchand avaible, i hope microsoft store , XBOX, accept bitcoin
- bitcoin price stable at $500



anyway im sure block halving will make 2016 the year of tbitcoin, after block halving more people will talk about bitcoin price and more merchand will accept bitcoin

Absolutely many people who adopt bitcoin will also affect the price of bitcoin.
A very important advantage if a lot of people who adopt bitcoin.

since in the last of year the value of btc was very low but this year the value of bit coins will be reached to the maximum value .
because in this year the value of bitcoins at the start falled but now it is going to increase . and also will increases repedely.
and i also think that there can be another opposite result of expectations .
if any other countries also bans the use of btc then the result will be same as that of last year .
all over that we can say that the future of btc is bright if no countries banned the  use of btc

The bear market has lasted long enough. I predict 2016 is the year where bitcoin finally breaks through, both in price and in mainstream adoption.

The fork issue is a distraction. It won't kill bitcoin. The majority will eventually choose what fork they want to use, whether it is the original, or XT, or some third option.

I see the fork issue as silly infighting which only hurts bitcoin. I want bitcoin to succeed, that's what I care about, not what version of BTC I use. I will go with the majority, whichever fork is chosen.

It 's easy to predict without any arguments 
What make you think Bitcoin is about to go mainstream? Amazon accepting BTC in 2016?

I think its possible in 2016, the bitcoin is getting bigger everyday.
Maybe Amazon is taking the chance to go for the bitcoin.

There are two big news in 2016. The first is the block reward halving, the second is the block size increase, both will increase the price.

lets hope that you are right that both of those would increase the price of bitcoin, but I think that would also both bring stability to the price if not increase.. 

[wikenpp]

I think it is not the year of Bitcoin. But it will rise up later I hope. I hope later that it will be more worth later in the future.
But it is hard to say what is going to happen in the future, because Bitcoin is a currency and it is hard to say what is going to happen.

I dont think it will increase so much this year. Maybe it will rise later in the future.
But we dont know if that is going to happen, because it is hard to say if bitcoin is growing.

[mrflibblehat]

From what I've read it's the year of the monkey, but maybe it could be both. I don't know.

[gregyoung14]

I'm all up for this year of Bitcoin thing. I think it wouldn't actually hurt to get your hopes this high up with Bitcoins.

[nanonymousx]

I too have many positive ideas about bitcoins "and particularly the price" with 2016, The media coverage is reaching new peaks and allot of new interested users are coming, as well as the block halving should lower the new supply "with increasing user demand IMO" so the price should rise IMO.
